The “Always On” campaign makes its debut on Friday with both print and video advertisements. Created by FCB West, the new ads are meant to be humorous and light-hearted takes on classic khaki, with taglines such as “pants that turn one night into a weekend,” and “pants that show your boss who's boss.” In addition to reintroducing khakis to a younger market, the ads will also promote Dockers new Smart 360 Flex technology, which offers four-way stretch both vertically and horizontally.
 
Dockers has struggled with sales in recent months, despite an increase in sales for its parent company, Levi Strauss. The 30-year-old brand has especially struggled with slow sales across department stores as a whole, where it used to have a strong presence. According to the brand, the new ad campaign is a chance to remind the public of the label’s roots as a khaki brand.

The new “Always On” campaign will run across television, cinema and digital channels in both the United States and internationally.
